Record JPEG scans on DVD player?

[john_b]

So having scanned some imaged, and saved as JPGs, I thought it'd be a doddle to view them on a DVD player...

...how naive am I? The images are fine; there's no problem viewing them on my PC, but the DVD player won't recognise the format. Might there be software that either saves them in a format that can be recognised or, alternatively, creates some kind of slide show/presentation?

And does it make a difference whether I put them onto CD or DVD?

(with apologies if we've been here before)
